The World is Coming to an End: #Blame Twitter [Infographic]

June 25, 2012 By Vernon Gadson Leave a Comment

It’s the end of the world as we know it, my friends, and it seems Twitter is to blame. It’s true: the social networking site, which has attained over 500 million users since its inception in March 2006, is bringing about the apocalypse, and we’ve got the evidence to prove it.

As a nigh-obsessed daily user of Twitter, I’ve inevitably encountered certain aspects of the site that have troubled and irritated my tweet-aholic self. I’ve been using its services for over two years now. I’ve watched it grow, develop, change over time and meet its peak of popularity, all while I’ve been updating my 2,000+ followers on the filling of the sandwich I’m currently eating (cheese and ham are particular favourites of mine). But along with increased popularity and system developments naturally come things that bug and aggravate its loyal users. So, here are the top ten most troublesome things about that social networking site we love and adore oh so much. Now if you’ll excuse me, I have a yummy sandwich to tweet about as I consume its cheesy deliciousness. Omnomnom. [Read more…]
